Arthur Bollerup Sorensen (1880-1932), worked for the Great Northern Telegraph Company in Shanghai in the early 20th century, during which time he financed three expeditions in China and Tibet. The first took him to the Buddhist cave complex in Dunhuang in 1909; in 1915 he travelled to Xining in Qinghai province; and his final trip in 1921-22 took him to Tibet. The information he recorded on his travels is kept in the Royal Danish Geographical Society. A collection of scrolls and Buddhist texts from Dunhuang that he acquired in 1915 were donated to Denmark’s Royal Library in Copenhagen. 十八世紀 銅鎏金藥師佛坐像來源：A B Sorensen (1880-1932) 收藏，二十世紀初期Sorensen曾就職于丹國東北電報公司上海分公司。源於他對中國佛教藝術的極大興趣，在工作期間他曾三次自費去佛教聖地遊玩，1909年首先去了敦煌石窟；于1915年遊玩青海的西寧；而1921-1922年的西藏旅程是他最後一次中國旅程。他的中國遊記被保存在丹麥皇家地理俱樂部中，另外一批在1915年從敦煌購得的佛教經書捐獻給了丹麥哥本哈根皇家博物館。
